* does not change ./configure parameters
You still have to specifiy --with-interface=ncurses for
the Curses interface with default settings
* the "NCurses" UI was used for many different Curses
variants, so plain "Curses" is a better name.
|
|
* it must be initialized after the UI (Interface::main), so I added
a View::initialize() function
* the old initialize() method was renamed to setup()
* use a global instance of QRegister::view so it is guaranteed to
be destroyed only after any QRegisters that could still need it
* Document API adapted to work with ViewCurrent references

Template Pattern.
* without the one-view-per-buffer designs, many Scintilla send message (SSM)
calls could be inlined
* with the new design, this was no longer possible using the abstract
base classes. the CRT pattern allows inlining again but introduces
a strange level of code obscurity.
* tests suggest that at high optimization levels, the one-view-per-buffer
design and the CRT pattern reduces typical macro runtimes by 30%
(e.g. for symbols-extract.tes).
* only updated the NCurses UI for the time being
|

The user interface provides a Scintilla view abstraction and
every buffer is based on a view. All Q-Register strings use
a single dedicated view to save memory and initialization time
when using many string registers.
* this means we can finally implement a working lexer configuration
and it only has to be done once when the buffer is first added
to the ring. It is unnecessary to magically restore the lexer
styles upon rubout of EB (very hard to implement anyway). It
is also not necessary to rerun the lexer configuration macro
upon rubout which would be hard to reconcile with SciTECO's
basic design since every side-effect should be attached to a
character.
* this means that opening buffers is slightly slower now
because of the view initialization
* on the other hand, macros with many string q-reg operations
are faster now, since the document must no longer be changed
on the buffer's view and restored later on.
* also now we can make a difference between editing a document
in a view and changing the current view, which reduces UI calls
* the Document class has been retained as an abstraction about
Scintilla documents, used by QRegister Strings.
It had to be made virtual, so the view on which the document
is created can be specified by a virtual function.
There is no additional space overhead for Documents.

normally, since SciTECO is not a library, this is not strictly
necessary since every library should use proper name prefixes
or namespaces for all global declarations to avoid name clashes.
However
* you cannot always rely on that
* Scintilla does violate the practice of using prefixes or namespaces.
The public APIs are OK, but it does define global functions/methods,
e.g. for "Document" that clashed with SciTECO's "TECODocument" class at
link-time.
Scintilla can put its definitions in a namespace, but this feature
cannot be easily enabled without patching Scintilla.
* a "SciTECO" namespace will be necessary if "SciTECO" is ever to be
turned into a library. Even if this library will have only a C-linkage
API, it must ensure it doesn't clutter the global namespace.
So the old "TECODocument" class was renamed back to "Document"
(SciTECO::Document).

* as of gcc 4.7.2, -Wnarrowing is in -Wall
|
|
* should improve performance on EMCurses/Emscripten,
since no polling for key events is necessary anymore
|
|
|
|
|
|
by building with Emscripten support, SciTECO may be
embedded into web pages.
* sciteco.html is not a piece of documentation but a sample SciTECO embedding
|
|
* compiler does not warn by default: this actually makes sense
* so we don't need any unused-attributes
* less GCC-extension based
* on older GCCs I think -Wunused-parameters was enabled by -Wall
we should add -Wno-unused-parameters if that's the case
|
|
init_priority attribute
* we cannot use weak symbols in MinGW, so we avoid init_priority for symbol
initialization by compiling the empty definitions into
sciteco-minimal but the real ones into sciteco
(had to add new file symbols-minimal.cpp)
* this fixes compilation/linking on LLVM Clang AND Dragonegg
since their init_priority attribute is broken!
this will likely be fixed in the near future but broken versions
will be around for some time

since including glib.h on LLVM-Clang (32-bit) results in NULL being
redefined to 0 and compiler warnings being emitted when NULL is used
as sentinels
|

|
* also revised the way in which unhandled keys are interpreted
(use gdk_keyval_to_unicode() instead of deprecated GdkEventKey::string)
* keep in sync with Curses key handling
|
|
* Scintilla is now initialized from main() using Interface::main()
* Scintilla initialization depends on initialization of objects in the
global namespace (otherwise the Lexer catalogue may not be filled
properly and lexing may not work). Lexer modules were initialized
after SciTECO interface initialization
* merged Scintilla initialization (Interface::main()) with interface
option parsing
|
|
macros
* if enabled, when a function key is pressed it is looked up in Q-Registers ^F...
e.g. HOME key corresponds to register ^FHOME
* the string if available is inserted as if it was entered by key-presses
(later it may be entered as a single input token which may be removed in a single rubout)
* only NCurses currently, key names directly correspond to Curses key names
* on Curses if function keys are enabled ESCAPE will be inserted after a delay
(because function keys are transmitted via escape sequences).
A function key macro may be used to define an alternative escape character
|
|
* there was a dependency on interface initialization.
it did not cause issues because destruction order was
by chance.
* introduced INIT_PRIO and PRIO_* macros to easy initialization order declaration
(using a PRIO_* formula makes code self-documenting)
* also used this to clean up QRegisterTable initialization
(we do not need the explicit initialize() method)
* also used to clean up symbols initialization
|
|
commandline macro)
* only works as part of commandline macro,
* at the beginning of other macros, it is treated like an arithmetic asterisk
* variables defined in cmdline.cpp are now declared by new cmdline.h
|
|
fixes PDCurses support)
|
|
|
|
* CTRL/C will be a command so it is important to be able to type it directly
* aborting character processing is important because it allows aborting infinite loops
* since the loop interruption currently relies on SIGINT handling, there is only limited
support for XCurses and GTK - CTRL/C has to be typed in the terminal window.
later support for input queue polling might be added
